Former Alaska Republican Governor Sarah Palin has called on her fellow GOP House candidate Nick Begich to drop out of the November midterm race.
Palin made the plea during a Monday news conference following a loss to Democrat Mary Peltola in the state’s special House election to replace Republican Rep. Don Young, who passed away earlier this year.
Palin and Begich combined to take 60% of the vote, yet Peltola was declared the winner due to taking the most votes in the state’s new ranked-choice vote system.
All three candidates will again face off in the November midterm election, where Palin and Begich could again divide the conservative vote and leave a Democrat in office for the next two years. Palin urged Begich to step down to clear the path for her to receive at least 50% of the vote and avoid the loss she endured in August.
